A research group comprising 10 senior researchers (the authors), with a professional background in either nursing or physiotherapy and qualified in realist and interpretive qualitative research methods, conducted a systematic literature review of qualitative papers concerning HCPs' experiences working with patients with type 2 diabetes, CKD, and COPD. Based on our analysis of the results chapters of the included studies, three main themes were identified and developed, each addressing our overall aim to describe HCPs' experiences working with patients with long-term chronic diseases: individualizing the professional approach within the clinical encounter; managing one's emotions over time; and working to maintain professionalism (Table 4 ).	./cache/cord-004314-gtwtakpr.txt	./txt/cord-004314-gtwtakpr.txt
